HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted January 7, 2016 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Hey everybody For those of you that have CI's, have any of you received some funny questions about your processor? People have asked me if it is a new Bluetooth, new phone, some type of iPod to listen to music. I have even been asked if I am Security and they are a 2way radio. Never dull.

HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted January 7, 2016 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Funny thing is, Medel I believe has one of the smallest processors. I would need to check that. I know in the top two. One of the companies has a larger processor and coil for sure. Of a Course all are super small compared to the body worn processors back in the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Adam Posted January 7, 2016 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Children were implanted for the most part first in the beginning as they felt an adult deaf person could not develope speech. They went with, the earlier the person is implanted, the greater chance of development of speech. Because of this, as active as kids are the body worn processors were worn. Also the the speech processors were MUCH larger in the beginning so adults had to deal with this as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
